RGB laser

Last month we had the pleasure of bringing you [FireMyLaser’s] green laser spirograph. Just green is great for a while, but why not add red and blue for a full spectrum of color! [c4r0] steps in at this point to bring us his red green blue laser. He dug around inside Blu-ray players and DVD drives until he had a collection of lasers, refractors, and other filters that fit his needs. With some careful toothpick alignment and glue, his setup was complete.

But then he went further by modified his galvo scanner to accept the RGB laser; requiring a custom circuit board and new software, both available on his site. The original is in Polish, but Google does a decent translation. Check after the jump for a video.

Holy crap, you know, if you wanted to go really nuts you could make your scanner a bit more precise and create your own laser raster scanner (ie. a scanning lazer TV). That would be really really awesome, but I think the technical challenges might be too great.

hack a DMD from a DLP projector in there!! that’s how to make the raster scanner… just forgo the colour wheel and pulse the lasers to make RGB :) i think that’s what those laservue TV guys did, and how i think the projectors coca-cola uses work
